This company is also marketing a porcelain tube wiring fitting called the "Callender". This tube is supplied with sharp edged projections which cut into the wood when the tubes are driven with a mallet. These edged projections prevent the tube from pulling out when wires are withdrawn or the beams are subjected to heavy vibration.
